What Adam has to say: Hello, Hola, and Ciao. My name is Adam and am 24 years old. I am still in college in Madison and have a few years of DJ experience under my belt. I first started with Scott and High Energy in 2001. After a couple of years off, I am back in action and ready to be at your service. I love all kinds of music and have a love for having "excessive happiness." I love to DJ because I get to help people out and make their special day not just great, but amazing! I look forward to seeing you at your next event!
What the owner has to say: If you do your math correctly, you'll see that Adam is another one of our "projects" that really turned out fabulous. He started Djing when he was 16 and Adam has really developed into a quality entertainer on the microphone and really enjoys his job. He truly has become an excellent DJ putting the clients needs first. He is also one of the most professional and polite individuals that I have had the pleasure of meeting. He will do a fantastic job for you. Kids love him at school shows, and adults love him at weddings, which makes Adam one of our more diverse DJ's as he is able to adapt to all environments.

What Ed has to say: I'm 50 years old, married 20 years to my wife Tera. We have four children, Tanner 19, Tyler 16, Trevor 15 and Tatum 11. The best thing about DJing is partying with great people and great music. I like all kinds of music but I'm partial to classic rock and country. In real life I'm a 911 dispatcher for Dane County. But pumping out tunes at a wedding party on a Saturday night is so much more fun!! I'd rather meet you through this job, than my other one!
What the owner has to say: Ed has a very professional, businessman-like personality and even throws in a touch of comedic value. He is quick to make sure your needs are met when he arrives. Being a bit older we kid him about "staying young and hip", so we have nicknamed him DJ Kool as a constant reminder that he is never too old to have fun!!

What John has to say: This is what you need to know: Nickname: DJ Fatboy, the Fatboy, Fatboy. Boxers never Briefs. Definitely Mary Ann not Ginger. Super Chunky or Chunky peanut butter not creamy. This gentleman prefers brunettes not blondes. The Stones over the Beatles, and Pearl Jam over Nirvana, but just barely. If I were a Crayola crayon I would be Blizzard Blue because it matches my eyes ladies. Its not funny, but it is true. I do actually prefer giving gifts over getting gifts. Is that weird? I purposely squeeze the toothpaste tube in the middle, not the bottom as a show of social defiance. The first album I purchased was "Boston" by Boston and the last CD I bought was "Accelerate" by R.E.M, which I recommend, have I evolved? Celebrity Crushes: Minnie Driver-actress, Belinda Carlisle-the Go-Gos, Susanna Hoffs-the Bangles, Diane Lane-actress, Marcia Brady-goddess, sex-kitten. Role Models: Eric Cartman-South Park, Mike Brady-The Brady Bunch, and James Tiberius Kirk-Star Trek again the question...do I watch too much TV? Oh yeah, I almost forgot Phillip F. "Duckie" Dale-Pretty in Pink. I believe in hard work, the concept of pay it forward, that the pitcher owns the inside part of the plate, tomatoes just make sandwiches soggy, and puppies. I believe in being on time, being respectful, and being funny. I believe that Bert from Sesame Street is a narcissistic, fun-hating germaphobe who is a bad role model for kids. I believe there should be a law against high gas prices, infomercials and mean people, and I believe that using adverbs and adjectives that start with a vowel, specificaly the letter I, make you sound smarter. I dont "get" Lenny Kravitz, or Coldplay, but I will sing along to most John Denver songs. I dont believe in seraching forever for that "perfect" greeting card, so I typically give Happy Retirement or Bat Mitzvah cards for most occasions. I am John Viles and I approved this message.
What the owner has to say: As you can tell, John is our true comedian of the group. If you need a quick comeback or a one liner, he's your guy. Truly though, John has been a pillar of sorts in our company. He is the third DJ I ever hired and remains with us without a waver in his enthusiasm for the job. Plus you have to see him dance!! A genuinely nice guy, who will do a great job for you!

What the owner has to say about himself!! - I originally started DJing to overcome many years of introvertedness that years and years of childhood therapy could not do. I quickly found out that it's not so hard to make a fool of yourself, and it is even easier to make fun of yourself when you do. I have been married to Jenifer since 94 and have three "busy" boys, Ethan, Damon, and Cameron. They are the best, having to put up with my many nights in the office and being gone on weekends. Without their understanding and support, this company most definitely would not be where it is today. I take great pride in making sure your day happens EXACTLY as you wish, and will go the extra mile to do it. I have been careful in hiring my staff to make sure they have the same goal in mind. Thanks for looking into us!!

What Troy has to say: I'm Troy Dean from Chi-Town by way of Madison. I'm 29 and have been DJing for around a year. The reason I got into DJing is because I was born into this business. My dad was a DJ as I was being raised so this comes natural to me. I'm the middle son of 3 boys, Charles and Spencer are both involved in music too. My parents have been married for over 20 years now. The music I choose to listen to is rap and hip hop. I always try to keep shows upbeat and fun, so the people stay involved and dancing. I bring the FUNK to the shows so if you wanna have fun, you know who to request. In the words of Don C from Soul Train, "Love, Peace and Soul".
What the owner has to say: Troy is another one of our DJ's who oozes charisma. Being around Troy, he has a personality that makes you smile and want to call him your friend. He is learning the finer points of performing but does a great job of bringing his enthusiastic brand of DJing to your show.

What the owner has to say: Tom brings an enthusiastic energy to our staff. He is very professional and willing to meet your needs. He enjoys all types of music so he has become one of our most flexible DJ's. Tom also comes from a long line of DJ's as his brother in law was the very first DJ we ever hired back in 1993. So he has a lot to live up to, and I'm sure he will have to hear about it at every family gathering. Tom is a "by the book" kind of guy who really has developed a standard for Djing and lives up to it at every show.

What Josh has to say: Hi, I’m Josh Kuhl aka DJ Frosty. The name comes from my crazy hair and my undying love for Wendy’s Frosty Malts (man those are sooo good). I’m one of the only single ones here, and I am the tall, dark, and handsome man of the company at 6’6. I can’t claim Craig’s title of biggest boobs in the company, but I can claim to be the tallest. My employment here began one fateful night at the local Subway where I used to work. Scott walked in with his kids to get some dinner, and apparently his satisfaction with my ability to make a superb meatball sub sparked an invitation to lead an addition to his company called High Energy Catering. He said we could specialize in making meatball subs for weddings, and that I would be guaranteed to be a millionaire by the age of 25. Well, that’s not really what happened. I was looking for another job, and I had always wanted to do some DJ work. After singing and playing guitar in my band for a year, I thought I had what it takes to take over the mic and get some parties started, and Scott offered me the opportunity! My love for music has helped me develop my vast musical knowledge, and if you combine that with my charisma, you have the combination for a great DJ to make your special day the best ever!
What the owner has to say: He brings a lot of enthusiasm and excitement to the team. He has quickly become an integral part of High Energy DJ's. His biggest assets are his energy and eagerness to provide a professional show. He also has a natural DJ voice and sounds fantastic on the microphone. Josh is young enough to be one of the more "hip" DJ's with High Energy but seasoned enough to understand the professionalism that is needed at events like weddings and will do anything to meet your demands. A very nice kid that we are glad to have aboard.

What Ted has to say: I have been involved with music and other various performance arts all of my life. Specifically, I enjoy producing and DJing music. The most enjoyable part of life, for me, is making large groups of people smile and move to music. I have been DJing (on turntables) as a hobby for 6 years now, so knowing what a crowd wants, and how to give it to them, is second nature to me at this point. I love all types of music, on any given day I will be listening to strictly House or Techno music, and on the next day I will be listening to Johnny Cash or Lynyrd Skynyrd. When I heard about the opportunity to work for Scott, I jumped on it immediately, and within a week I was hired. I take pride in everything that I am a part of, leaving no stone untruned, no detail unnoticed, and no request unfullfilled. When it comes down to doing things the right way, I am a very serious person, a serious peron, who seriously knows how to have a great time. I am proud to be a part of the High Energy DJs, and I hope that I can be a part of making your event a success.
What the owner has to say: Ted has come a long way with High Energy. In the early going, he thought maybe there were other routes for him to pursue. Wanting to be a radio DJ and going to school for that purpose, he quickly found out, this is more fun and more lucrative. He enjoys his job and will always put your needs first. A good guy who will go the extra mile for you. A sense of humor and a drive to be the best as he delivers a fun and professional environment at every show.

What Scott has to say: Yes it is true there is another Scott. Now I will have to say, that i'm not as sexy or as cool or as popular as my boss, but it is hard to be like Rico Suave. It can be confusing when dealing with customers or people on the street with regards to High Energy, because Scott is just so darn popular. It's like being with a famous person, NOT! But seriously folks when it comes to djing, my total dedication is to the customer. When contracted for a show, I will usually show up for the show at least 2 1/2 to 3 hours for the show. I know... I know... I'm nuts right? That's what Scott says too. But when you walk into that reception, everything should be perfect and that includes a dj who is ready to go. i'm that dj. This is your day not mine. I'm like your human jukebox, not all dj's take requests or play them for that matter. I DO!!!!! If you can dance to it, if I have it and it is not on the no play list (per bride and groom) I WILL PLAY IT!!!!!! I go that extra mile (and then some). Sometimes taking requests can backfire on a dj, (dance floor empties, someone complaines because of a song being played) but I will let them know that it is request from a guest of the function. They are there for you too. Again, I know talk is cheap and it all looks good in writing or on paper, so do come out and see one of my shows (ask Scott for place and times). I look forward to seeing you at my next performance (I even promise to keep it clean for you... haha).
What the owner has to say: Scott comes to our company with 17 years of experience in Djing. A great guy that is very personable and always has the needs of the client in mind. Scott is one of the most dependable people I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. If you need something, anything; Scott is the kind of guy that would drop what he is doing and help you out. It may get confusing having another Scott on the staff, but this Scott is sure glad to have him on our team. A fun guy that you'll be glad you got to know. You can tell by his reviews (click on his name) that he has what it takes to bring the High Energy attitude to your event.

What Tim has to say: I'm an Electrician, I coach Little League, I like biking, hiking, playing and watching sports, traveling, and time with friends and family. DO YOU THINK WE'D BE A MATCH?
What the owner has to say: As you can see ladies, Tim has his personal ad down pat. How about it? Tim started with us in 2007 and has a perfect DJ voice. Tim is quite possibly the most "ready" DJ that I have ever hired. He has a knack for the microphone and great music knowledge. He is extremely personable and both eager and ready to serve you and make your day a special one you'll never forget. Tim is going to be around a long time with High Energy.

What Aaron has to say: Don't let the pretty girl in the picture distract you, she is contractually obligated to smile at me. You may have seen me smoking in the boy's room, welcoming you to the jungle, rocking in the free world or bringing your daughters to the slaughter. I have worked in the bar/nightclub industry as a DJ for the last six years and am now available for your wedding or event! My vast knowledge of music and personality on the microphone are sure to make your day memorable. If you have actually gotten this far, I am impressed - I would still be staring at the pretty girl.
What the owner has to say: Tripp comes to us with a nice set of credentials. He is extremely confident on the microphone and has a very engaging personality. His willingness to provide a top notch quality performance each and every night is what will make him a sure fire hit with High Energy. We welcome him on as one of our two newest performers in February of 2009.

What Craig has to say: I'm Craig D, also known as Craig D Dance Machine, or DJ Dance Pants. If a dance party is what you are looking for, that's what I have to bring, and when I have the chance I'll be right out there with you to bust-a-move! My specialty is 80's dance hits, hip-hop, club, and many other flavors to keep you cutting a rug till they have to kick us out.
What the owner has to say: Craig is our newest addition. He has a unique alias because he does like to dance. Expect Craig to get out and have fun with your guests and fit right into your party like a nice comfy pair of blue jeans. We look forward to Craig having a long career with High Energy and are very comfortable in saying you'll be glad you chose DJ Dance Pants.

What the owner has to say: Ethan is the young Jedi son of the owner. He is only 16, but very eager to start working the family business. At present he will be handling primarily school shows and he really knows his music. He also does a great job balancing being able to relate to the kids, while keeping in mind this is a professional operation and remembering there are school boards and parents involved at all times. This is nepotism at its finest people!!!! Glad to have him aboard as it gets harder and harder as a 40 year old to relate to the young whipper snappers of the world!!

What Crystal has to say: Allow me to enlighten you as to how I received my nickname, as it has been known to intimidate people from time to time. I believe I was around 5 years old when my parents started calling me Sassy. As I’m told, it was not only because of my deceiving dimples, but also because I was very determined to become so much more than what others expected of me. It was because of that sassy determination that just over 4 years ago, at the age of 25, I moved to the Madison area to follow my dream of becoming a nurse. I am currently a full-time student at MATC and have also been working for ‘Quimby’ for three years. Back in Ashland, I was co-owner of a DJ company for 5 years, as well. So, I have roughly 8 ½ years of experience as a DJ. I’ve always enjoyed making people smile, as well as, seeing them happy, and I believe being a DJ is the best way to do that. To say the least, I am a ‘people person’ and enjoy all aspects of entertaining through music. As I’ve been told, The party doesn’t truly begin until Sassy arrives. So, with that being said, be sure to request the DJ with class, as well as, SASS!
What the owner has to say: Crystal comes to us from the Great White North. Well close to it. Hailing from beautiful Ashland, WI, Sassy has been a part owner of a DJ company for 5 years up north. After moving down "south" she felt it was still in her blood to continue Djing. High Energy is fortunate to have such a friendly, outgoing personality just fall into our lap. She is a great addition to our staff and becomes the 4th female jock over our 13 year company history. And we have had a great run with female DJs in the past as brides seem to be very comfortable knowing they have a female perspective in charge! We think you'll enjoy her "attitude" as much as we do.

What the owner has to say: Jen has an excitement level perfect for this business. She began her training in June of 06 and rapidly blossomed into one of our "go to" DJs that everyone liked. She is very bubbly and just fun to be around, Jen can turn even the slowest of parties around and make sure everyone has a blast. She recently moved to the Appleton area however, so her availability has been cut dramatically. If you live in the Appleton, Oshkosh, Fond du lac area, feel free to request Jen, you wont be disappointed.
